BREAKING NEWS:  Following the events at the end of AWL 30, the NEW AWL World Heavyweight Champion Dragon was taken to a local medical facility where he was examined for the effects of blunt force trauma to the throat after Bubba Reese jammed a steel chair into his neck.

              According to the doctors, Dragon tensed his neck muscles at exactly the right moment to avoid any critical damage.  He has some bruising and the mother of all sore throats, but there was no harm done to his windpipe, carotid arteries, or any other valuable equipment.

              As such, the Green Grappler HAS been cleared to wrestle this weekend at AWL 31.  While he will not defend his newly won crown, he will compete in a non-title match against the tag team partner of his first challenger: “Suplex Master” Sammy Nix.

              As for Bubba Reese, contrary to the opinion expressed on commentary at AWL 30, Mr. Reese did not “Escape from police custody.”  Instead, he was released when the police concluded that they could not successfully prosecute the case.  If this seems strange to you considering the video evidence involved, you’re not alone.  The AWL Commissioner will release a statement on the matter at AWL 31.

              Finally, while it is 10 episodes in the making, the Animated Wrestling League will finally deliver the match promised for AWL 21: Ganba vs. Matt Classic at AWL 31.
